Seafood

I have always been fond of lobster, more so that of crab, here I am seen tucking in to a small one at Cherating on the east coast of Malaysia. Unfortunately this was the first time there and while enjoying the Tiger beer I had not yet discovered that hidden out the back they had some wine.
Mind you it was nice to have the beer anyway, and it is pleasant here in Qatar to be able to get it (or wine) in the hotel restaurants. Although my other favourite will probably not be available anywhere here.
But there are Japanese restaurants around and I do love sashimi, although not sushi so much. A big plate of sashimi though, especially with a decent amount of octopus, is something that I find very hard to resist, especially if properly presented.
But there are so few places that can present it in the way that best grabs both your eye, your taste buds and all your various appetites, don't you find?
